Select language to translate this lyric
sally s waiting by the corner
bars don t open here til noon
her hands are shaking like a sinner
she s got to find salvation soon
preacher standing at the doorway
with a smile to guide them in
his hands full of forgiveness
his heart of emptiness and gin
they found a place, they found a place
found a place where their ghosts left them alone
so they called it home
sally looks toward the churchyard
the flock are crowding all around
but she knows not to ask a seeker
for something he has never found
preacher looks back to the corner
he s seen that smile on her before
but he s not one to sit in judgement
he ll meet her later on the floor
they found a place, they found a place
found a place where their ghosts left them alone
so they called it home
sorrow makes a good companion
you know that you re his only one
though he may leave you to your slumber
he s there in the morning with the sun
they found a place, they found a place
found a place where their ghosts left them alone
so they called it home
